Portwine Stain Birthmark Pott Shrigley

At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, a cutting-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is in use by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK, to securely and efficiently treat Portwine Stain Birthmark on skin types I-IV. By emitting light at particular wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn, we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin allowing us to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark at various sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. After treatment, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no indication of the initial lesion is left.

By making use of IPL at Dr Sknn, we exploit light energy, which is absorbed by the Portwine Stain Birthmark until they are heated to the extent that they contract and/or shrink and are sealed. Over the upcoming weeks, the ruined vessels will be naturally taken in by the body, resulting in nearly no trace of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the consultation a medical history, physical examination and photos are taken. During the converse there is the possibility to present any worries, expectations, results or questions you might have. Prior to the treatment any post-treatment advice and the associated risks with it will be explained making sure you fully understand them and a consent form is signed. Likewise, if it is a new area being treated a small patch test will be done to determine if it is appropriate for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
